I would actually prefer to see the prefixes removed from the messages
and threads output rather than see it added to the tags output.  I think
that's the way to make the output most consistent.  When I ask for
--output=messages I'm asking for the message ids of the messages, not
for search terms for the messages.  I think it should be up to the
consumer to add the prefix if they would like to construct search terms
based on the output.

My 2 cents.  I would be happy to provide a patch to make that change if
people agree to that behavior.

jamie.
